标题: Students injured in picking fall ( Pegasus Orchards )
SIX Chinese students were hurt when they fell from a picking platform on a Richmond apricot farm early yesterday morning.

The University of Tasmania students were thrown more than two metres to the ground from the toppling platform as the tractor went around a corner on Pegasus Orchards at 8am.

The students were treated for shock before being taken to the Richmond Medical Centre for further treatment.

The normally quiet waiting room was packed with the students, a farm worker and five other patients. One student had an X-ray for a sore rib, and five were released with no injuries. The pickers were given the rest of the day off.

Orchard manager David Cowle said the platform overbalanced as the tractor turned a corner.

The students were taken to the medical centre as a precaution, Mr Cowle said.

"We followed all the protocols and looked after their health," he said.

No Chinese student was willing to comment.

UTAS director of international services Paul Rigby said support services were available for any international student in need.

"Students are provided with the university's security office number and they are emailed regular reminders about this," Mr Rigby said.

Support services include counselling, providing transport for the students concerned, notifying friends and making phone calls on their behalf, he said.

The majority of the 30 pickers employed on the farm are Chinese and Pegasus Orchards director Phil Alexander said the firm took every effort to look after staff.

Workplace Standards has been notified of the accident. Pegasus grows 350 tonnes of apricots and picking will continue for three weeks.

comment 意味着失业

又不见得非这么工作不录取了

有什么好意味着评论就失业?

体制健全的社会,出工伤了还隐忍就是装孙子了

当然除非问题是出在你自身

听着很像煤窑老板的口气。

不发表意见不见得就是怕被炒。可能太累了,毕竟是纯体力活,而且农场主该做的也都做了的话,大家也不想难为人家。我觉得农场主普遍人好。
